Features & BenefitsDocumentsVideos
- Provides premium oxygen transfer and mixing over a wide range of flow conditions.
- Flexible for providing a wide range of oxygen transfer.
- Keyed, tapered bushings eliminate shaft fatigue failures associated with welded stub shafts.
- Designed with a safety factor of 5:1.
- Bolt-together construction eliminates the stress potential in the torque tube created by welding. Smith & Loveless uses two reinforcing ribs running the full length of the blade.
- Blades are aligned so that only every other row of blades hits the wastewater at any given instant, eliminating shockloads on the entire drive system.
- Blade removal/replacement easily accomplished in the field.
- A keyed, tapered bushing mounts the gear reducer to the rotor shaft. This eliminates the potential for movement associated with set screw type connections.
- The torque tube features a 14 in. (35.6 cm) diameter offering the potential for a submergence of 14 in. (35.6 cm).
- Optional weir system effectively controls the aerator's immersion in the wastewater, allowing for increased oxygen transfer rates when required.
- Optional patented turning baffles ensure proper velocity throughout the entire cross-section of the channel.
